The windows client REALLY wants to remember the server

Post by juggler » Thu Apr 05, 2012 2:17 pm

I am using the latest windows desktop client. I see that it is caching any entries made in the 'server' entry. I need to clean out the cached addresses. I've tried uninstalling, removing remaining folders, and reinstalling. Yet anything ever typed in the "Server Address" field is still there, along with some recently added profanities.

Aside from wiping the disk and reinstalling the OS, is there another way to clear the cached data?

Try using regedit to search for the cached server names, just be sure to back up any keys you change or delete before hand.

I tried regedit and the strings were not found.
